just breathe (archives)

i close my eyes

and just breathe…

it’s peaceful here,

floating down this

stream of thought.

it begins to wind

thru lost valleys

and forgotten forests,

even as they fade

once again into

the soothing mists

of timelessness.

i catch a glimpse

of myself ahead;

i think to wave,

but we both know

that peace of mind

is to be had here,

so we breathe,

just breathe…

southbound

now the geese are gathering

from fields all around;

they’re all wound up and blathering–

it’s quite an awful sound,

but soon they will be traveling,

no longer to be found,

for summer is unraveling–

it’s off to southern ground!

Thoreau Quote

There is much to be said about the benefits of a walk in the woods. It can change the way we feel, improve our health, and lifts our spirits. In fact, there’s so much I could say about it, I’m going to cut right through to the heart of the matter with a succinct quote about it by Henry David Thoreau:

“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.”
